Review Summary for 221 Seaman Avenue
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent tenants at 221 Seaman Avenue in Manhattan appreciate the live-in super's prompt assistance and the building's cleanliness. However, there are recurring issues with bedbugs spanning multiple years, leading to discomfort and dissatisfaction among residents. Car vandalism on side streets is another prevalent concern. Despite the great location and clean premises, the mishandling of severe bedbug infestations by the management has led to untenable living conditions for some tenants, overshadowing the building's positive aspects. Recommendations indicate a need for better pest control measures and improved owner responsiveness to address these ongoing issues effectively.
